WIPE OUT WHALING

Stop the transport, stop the trade.

The SEA LIFE Trust is working with Whale & Dolphin Conservation (WDC) to wipe out commercial whaling. WDC has proved that whale meat and other whale produce has docked here in British ports as well as in Germany and Holland on route to other destinations.

The investigation has also uncovered a surprising range of items that whale produce is finding its way into… including dog food, engine oil, watches and even beer.

The SEA LIFE Trust will be raising funds to help:

Send WDC experts to campaign to the Icelandic government

Carry out DNA analysis of suspected products

Hire legal experts to maximize the impact of current EU law
